Breaking Down Internalized Ableism  Summary In this conversation, Patricia explores the concept of internalized ableism, particularly among neurodivergent individuals. She discusses how societal stigma and expectations can lead to negative self-perceptions and feelings of inadequacy. Patricia shares personal experiences and insights on how internalized ableism manifests in various aspects of life, including relationships, self-acceptance, and the pressure to conform to neurotypical standards. She emphasizes the importance of unlearning these hurtful beliefs and embracing one's neurodivergent identity with compassion and understanding.   HIGHLIGHTS   ·       Internalized ableism is the unconscious adoption of negative beliefs about oneself due to societal stigma. ·       Neurodivergent individuals often feel pressure to conform to neurotypical standards, which can lead to trauma. ·       Resting is a valid need and should not be seen as a failure. ·       Asking for accommodations is essential for well-being and should not induce guilt. ·       The concept of 'high functioning' can be harmful and does not reflect true capabilities. ·       Time agnosia is a common experience for neurodivergent individuals. ·       Self-compassion is crucial in overcoming internalized ableism. ·       Relationships can be affected by the fear of being a burden. ·       Unlearning internalized ableism involves recognizing and challenging societal expectations. ·       Embracing neurodivergence includes acknowledging strengths and practicing self-acceptance. 115 SPECIFIC POINTS DISCUSSED 1.     How internalized ableism shows up in everyday life o   Masking, pushing through burnout, or feeling "lazy" when you're resting. 2.     Messages we absorbed growing up o   From school, parents, peers, or media about being "too much," "distracted," "weird," or "wrong." 3.     Perfectionism and people-pleasing as survival o   How needing to be “better” or “easy to manage” is often rooted in internalized shame. 4.     The trap of “not disabled enough” or “faking it” o   How we invalidate our own struggles because we don't “look” stereotypically disabled. 5.     ADHD, autism, OCD & “high-functioning” narratives o   The myth of being “high functioning” and how it reinforces ableist expectations. 6.     Feeling guilt for needing accommodations or rest o   That voice that says “you're being difficult” when you ask for what you actually need. 7.     Shame around executive dysfunction o   Struggling to start tasks, follow through, or manage time — and blaming yourself. 8.     Rejecting your own needs to fit in o   Forcing eye contact, avoiding stimming, hiding rituals, not using noise-canceling headphones in public, etc. 9.     The pressure to be “independent” all the time o   How internalized capitalism + ableism equates needing support with being a failure. 10.  Comparing yourself to neurotypical peers ·       Especially in productivity, relationships, or emotional regulation. 11.  “If I can do it sometimes, I should always be able to” myth ·       Inconsistent ability = inconsistent worth? Nope. Talk about spoon theory and fluctuating capacity. 12.  How OCD-specific traits are misunderstood or mocked ·       And how that seeps into how you see yourself (e.g., feeling “crazy,” “irrational,” or “a burden”). 13.  Internalized ableism in dating & relationships ·       Fear of being too much, too emotional, or too rigid — and minimizing yourself as a result. 14.  How healing looks like reclaiming your needs unapologetically ·       Self-accommodation, boundaries, rest, and neurodivergent joy as rebellion. 15.  Relearning self-compassion and identity pride ·       Ending with hope: unmasking, connecting with community, and defining success on your own terms.    SOUND BITES ·       "Rest is resistance." ·       "You are not broken." ·       "You deserve rest, joy, and support."    SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are.    CHAPTERS (please add time for addition of introduction) 00:00 Understanding Internalized Ableism 02:40 The Impact of Societal Expectations 05:31 Navigating Personal Experiences with Internalized Ableism 08:18 The Struggle for Accommodations 10:55 Executive Dysfunction and Inconsistent Abilities 14:01 The Pressure of Productivity 16:53 Feeling 'Not Enough' in Neurodivergence 19:43 Unlearning Internalized Ableism 22:27 Building Self-Compassion and Acceptance  PODCAST HOST Patricia was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you LINKS Rest Is Resistance: Free yourself from grind culture and reclaim your life by Tricia Hersey.

Resting in God‘s authority over the people who have authority over me

Simply do this: Be still, and lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what God is; all concepts you have learned about the world; all images you hold about yourself. ²Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or false, or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy, and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. ³Hold onto nothing. ⁴Do not bring with you one thought the past has taught, nor one belief you ever learned before from anything. ⁵Forget this world, forget this course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your God.

Summer In The Psalms | Resting In The Lord | Pastor Nick Tynan (Guest)

Jesus didn't just teach about Sabbath—He is our Sabbath. In this message, Pastor David explores the deep, transformative rhythm of Sabbath, not as a rule to follow but as a weekly invitation to Stop, Rest, Delight, and Worship. More than a break from work, Sabbath is a holy protest against the lies of busyness, productivity, and self-sufficiency—and a return to the truth that Jesus is Lord, and we are not.

It's been one year since Steven Arroyo's passing, but his mark on Los Angeles and our food scene continue to be felt with the institutions he created, Escuela and Cobra & Matadors, still feeding Angelenos in beautiful ways. From 2021, Jordan and Steven talk the greatness and origins of the food and the man behind it all.

This Sunday's Inspirational Message is: Rooted and Built Up in Christ I'm Pastor Warren Swanson, and today we're diving into Colossians 2:6-15, a passage that's like a roadmap for a faith that stands strong. Paul wrote this letter around 60 AD to a young church in Colossae, a city buzzing with ideas—Greek philosophy, Jewish rules, pagan mysticism—all trying to pull believers away from Jesus. Sounds a lot like today, doesn't it? Social media, self-help trends, and cultural voices can drown out the truth. But Paul says, “Stay rooted in Christ.” In this episode, we'll unpack three practical ways to do that: 1.     Walking daily in Jesus through prayer and Scripture, 2.     Guarding against deceptive philosophies by testing them against God's Word, and 3.     Resting in the complete forgiveness and victory of the cross. Picture an oak tree standing firm in a Minnesota storm—that's the stable, discerning, and complete life God offers. Try this: read Colossians 1 this week or pray with a friend to deepen your roots. In a world full of noise, Jesus is our anchor. * * * * * Once again, thanks for joining us in our time of worshiping the Lord through His Word!

Ashley's "before" was as extreme as her "after" is glorious. God knows how to make sure that we give Him the glory. She's obviously blessed by a turnaround that only He could have orchestrated. Yet, she didn't trust me at first. She did NOT go all in...If you're dealing with autism symptoms in ways that do not line up with the research & effort you're already putting in, Ashley knows how heavy that burden feels, especially when you're knee-deep into recovery and already have seen SOME results.I have recordings of her crying while her son is throwing tantrums in the background  (she described it as "living with an alien"). Her darkest moment was when he gave her a black eye on their vacation. Her summer is now like most other moms'. Resting. Watching her children play. Enjoying time with her husband and time on her own. Tantrums, eloping, screaming, picky eating, and aggression - not in her house! Her sons are now bonding and playing in the garden. Ashley doesn't need me anymore. She "graduated from" the turnaround process in 2023.  She is now LIVING the turnaround lifestyle. On the other side of the turnaround program. She's enjoying the fruit of the work she's completed.Can you guess how long it took her to get there?Do you know what she did (which prolonged the turnaround process and made it longer than it had to be)?Do you know if you're unknowingly doing the same? And how to speed up the turnaround process instead?In this podcast interview with Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson:Ashley will tell you all the secrets about what blocked and facilitated her recovery process (some of them you're secretly doing too). The interview is a preparation class for moms who want to join her live meeting in August. Her reason for helping other autism moms? "I could walk away with my results and enjoy my life without autism now," - but if my story can bring hope and healing to another mom, that's what I want to bring. I delayed the turnaround by the things that I did and the things that I THOUGHT before fully surrendering to the process."  Enjoy this episode.Here are 3 ways we can start turning autism symptoms around together, whenever you're ready... 1. Send me a voice message and get my feedback on your most pressing struggles. 2. Check out the free video series "The 5 hidden messages behind autism symptoms" and find your child's unique triggers. 3. Work with me privatelyIf you'd like to work with me directly to turn as many symptoms around as possible in my Autism Turnaround Coaching and implementation group..send me an email with "coaching" in the subject line and tell me how old your child is. I'll get you all the details.

Why would a leader boast about his weaknesses? Dr. John Neufeld explores Paul's surprising defense of his ministry in 1 Corinthians 2:1-5. When the Corinthian church criticized Paul as an unimpressive speaker who failed to reach society's elite, Paul responded by embracing his inadequacies. He refused flashy rhetoric, focusing solely on the cross of Christ, and admitted to fear and trembling—because God's power works best through human weakness.The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians. Covering chapters 1-4, The Power of Christ in a Pagan World looks at the many issues that confronted the church in Corinth; Problems that seemed to find their place within the church at every turn! This series helps us unpack the different conflicts and struggles of this early church in a relevant and practical way. Even though the church in Corinth existed a long time ago, they went through trials that might sound familiar to us in the 21st Century!

Amen.FIRST READING Amos 8:1-12Reader A reading from the Prophet Amos.This is what the Lord God showed me-- a basket of summer fruit. He said, "Amos, what do you see?" And I said, "A basket of summer fruit." Then the Lord said to me,"The end has come upon my people Israel; I will never again pass them by. The songs of the temple shall become wailings in that day," says the Lord God; "the dead bodies shall be many, cast out in every place. Be silent!"Hear this, you that trample on the needy, and bring to ruin the poor of the land, saying, "When will the new moon be over so that we may sell grain; and the sabbath, so that we may offer wheat for sale? We will make the ephah small and the shekel great, and practice deceit with false balances, buying the poor for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals, and selling the sweepings of the wheat."The Lord has sworn by the pride of Jacob: Surely I will never forget any of their deeds. Shall not the land tremble on this account, and everyone mourn who lives in it, and all of it rise like the Nile, and be tossed about and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?On that day, says the Lord God, I will make the sun go down at noon, and darken the earth in broad daylight. I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; I will bring sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on every head; I will make it like the mourning for an only son, and the end of it like a bitter day.The time is surely coming, says the Lord God, when I will send a famine on the land; not a famine of bread, or a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. They shall wander from sea to sea, and...

As part of an ongoing series of enlightenment practices, this meditation, inspired by Adyashanti, invites you to let your human heart be soaked in the presence of your spiritual heart, allowing it to restore and reorient your whole being to completeness and wholeness. This meditation can be used in the morning, at bedtime, or on the spot in the course of your day. The practices build on each other, so you can listen consecutively, but if there is one in particular that speaks to you, feel free to stick with it. Based on the teachings of Adyashanti, they can be used alone or as a companion to his audio series, The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge, or his book, The Direct Way: 30 Practices to Evoke Awakening. In some cases, the meditations are also loosely inspired by the teachings of Andrew Holecek, Pema Chodron, and Eckhart Tolle.  I hope you enjoy.Audio by Eric Fischer. Support the showHost: Tess CallahanSubstack: Writers at the WellInterview Podcast: Writers at the WellMeditations on Insight TimerMeditations on YouTubeTess's novels: https://tesscallahan.com/Music: Christopher Lloyd Clarke.Audio Editing: Eric Fischer of Audi-Refined.com By tapping "like" and "follow" you help others find the show.

Grandpa Bill shares:No matter where you are or what your day holds, let's take just a few moments to connect with ourselves, to find that peaceful core within. This is a gift you give to you.First, find a quiet space. Take a moment to settle in. It doesn't have to be perfect, just a spot where you feel comfortable and can minimize any distractions for the next few minutes. If you're able, perhaps close your eyes gently, or just soften your gaze downwards.Now, let's set an intention. Before we even begin, what do you want from this brief pause? Is it a feeling of deeper relaxation? A clearer sense of focus for what's next? Maybe it's preparing your mind for peaceful sleep, or simply finding a moment of calm in a busy day. Whatever it is, just gently hold that intention in your mind.And now, just listen. Allow the sounds to wash over you. You might notice the gentle hum of the binaural beats in the background. Just let those frequencies guide you. There's nothing you need to do, nothing you need to fix, nowhere else you need to be. Just be present with the sound.As you listen, bring your awareness to your breath. Feel the gentle rise and fall of your chest or abdomen with each inhale and exhale. Don't try to change your breath, just notice it. It's always there, a steady rhythm within you.Imagine each inhale bringing in a sense of calm, of peace, filling every part of your being. And with each exhale, release any tension, any worries, any thoughts that aren't serving you right now. Just let them float away like clouds in the sky.Feel your body relaxing, from the top of your head, down through your shoulders, your arms, your hands. Feel your back and torso softening, your hips sinking comfortably. Relax your legs and your feet. Every part of you is settling deeper into this moment of peace.The binaural beats are gently guiding your mind, helping you find a sense of harmony. You might feel a subtle shift, a quietening of the chatter, a deepening of your inner calm. This is your mind and body working together, finding their natural balance.You are cultivating your inner 'Silver Streaker' – that vibrant, resilient, peaceful part of you that's always ready to move forward with grace and ease.Just a few more breaths here, allowing yourself to simply be. Resting in this stillness, this harmony.(Pause for 10-15 seconds of quiet listening to the binaural beats.)Now, gently bring your awareness back to the room, to your surroundings. Wiggle your fingers and toes. Take a slightly deeper breath. And when you're ready, slowly open your eyes.Carry this sense of calm, this mind-body harmony, with you as you continue your day. Remember, this peaceful space is always available to you, just a breath and a listen away.#MindBodyHarmony,#BinauralBeats,#SilverStreakers,#GrandpaBill,#HolisticHealth,#WorkoutsForGeriatrics,#BrainWaves,#SoundHealing,#Consciousness#HealthyAging,#WellnessJourney,#MentalClarity,#StressRelief,#MeditationForBeginners,#Neuroscience,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#KidsFrom1To92,#BillHolt8792,Creative Solutions for Holistic Healthcare

We reflected on the immovable foundation of Christ and how to live, minister, and grow spiritually upon that foundation. We discussed the need for prayer, humility, and dependence on God—not flesh—as we build with what endures. Prophecy, spiritual warfare, and God's power over fear were recurring themes, as we encouraged one another to remain grounded in Christ's love and light.

The need for ministry leaders and everyone to balance work and rest is underscored, promoting a lifestyle that counters societal pressures of constant busyness and productivity. By setting boundaries and maintaining healthy rhythms of life, Josh and Jason advocate for a balanced approach to ministry and personal life.

We'd love to create what you want!  Namaste, Beautiful,

A real-time invitation to pause, reflect, and integrate. In this special mid-year episode,  we offer you the spaciousness and tools to reconnect with your intentions, acknowledge your growth, and mindfully marinate in what matters most.  We reflect openly on our guiding words for the year—how they've supported us, challenged us, and shaped our journeys so far.  With humor, honesty, and heart, we invite you to slow down and notice what's working, what's shifted, and what your future self will thank you for. This is an imperfect, spontaneous practice of self-kindness—and a gentle reminder that true healing happens not just through action but through thoughtful integration. Pearls of Wisdom: Reflecting mid-year is a powerful way to integrate growth and move forward with clarity and intention. Questions like “What have I done well?” and “What's bringing me joy?” help retrain our brains toward positive attention and away from perfectionism. Your words of the year—whether you remember all of them or just one—can serve as wise, compassionate guides when revisited with openness. Resting, in all its forms, is not a pause from progress—it is progress. You don't have to answer every question, or reflect perfectly; this is about practicing awareness with kindness. Reflection Questions: What have I done well? What has gone well? What is working well? What's bringing you joy, delight, or fun? What have you loved so far this year? What will your future self thank you for spending more time on in the next six months? Allow yourself to answer only what resonates and let the rest marinate. Let this be a moment to reset with kindness. Stay until the end for a grounding mindful moment of reflection—an opportunity to fully pause, breathe, and let the insights of this episode settle gently into your heart.     If this episode resonated with you and you're longing to explore your own healing, reflection, or transformation journey, I would love to support you.  Join me for a retreat in 2025 while there are still a few spots left: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats.

Breathe in as you relax into this calming meditation led by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with her poem, "Whispers of a Fifth Force".This meditation ends with music allowing you to drift off into sleep.Whispers of a Fifth Force, by Julie PotikerIn Idaho's early morning hush,I settle into the Adirondack chair by the fire pit,fast running river less than a pickle-ball court away,my slippered feet rest on the cool back of a boulder,smooth and steady beneath me.Above, the Aspen leaves shimmer—green coins rustling their soft applausein the mountain breeze.A plump American Robin bounces a spindly branch nearby. Gravity holds me gently,as it always has,the known forces humming their familiar song:electromagnetism weaving light across the sky,strong and weak nuclear threads binding the world within. Resting my head on the chair, I contemplate Far beyond this stillness,Bennu drifts—its ancient body charting paths we can measure,paths we can question.Physicists tilt their heads,listening for the quiet slip of anomaly,searching for a fifth force hidden in the mathematics. So far, Bennu holds its silence.But Apophis approaches—another messenger tumbling closer,another chance to findwhat might have always been there. Since the 1980s they have wondered—Could it be anti-gravity?Could it be quintessence?A hidden thread explaining dark energy, or light dark mattera secret folded into the fabricof everything we thought we knew. I breathe in the pine-sweet air,feel the steady earth beneath my feet,The cool breeze gently touches my face—and in the rustling leaves above,the universe whispers:there may yet be more.-Julie PotikerFind out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

This meditation scans through the body – arriving in the foreground with sounds, feelings and sensations, like the surface waves of the sea coming and going. And in the background, experiencing an alert inner stillness – a vast presence from which all activity pours forth.

If I Can Just Touch Him: Resting in the Presence of God Today's Homily reflects on two Scripture passages . . . . . . a vision of Jacob at Bethel and the Gospel story of the raising of the official's daughter and the healing of the woman with the hemorrhage. The Homily begins by exploring the nature of a shrine, emphasizing Jacob's recognition of God's presence and the spiritual importance of resting in a holy place. Jacob's dream of a ladder connecting heaven and earth becomes a symbol of God's grace descending and the soul ascending. In the Catholic tradition, this ladder is often identified with Mary, who brought Christ into the world and continues to be a spiritual bridge between heaven and earth. The Homily then turns to the Gospel, highlighting the deep faith of the Jewish official who believes Jesus can restore his dead daughter, and the desperate yet confident faith of the woman who believes that even touching Jesus' garment can heal her. Their stories emphasize the transformative power of physical contact with the Lord. This culminates in the sacrament of the Eucharist, where the faithful come forward to be physically touched by Christ, receiving healing and grace. All the faithful are urged to rest and make a true thanksgiving after communion, allowing the grace of Christ's touch to fully penetrate their lives. How? Listen more to this Meditation Media. Listen to: If I Can Just Touch Him: Resting in the Presence of God -------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote From The Homily . . . the Lord gives us his blessing. The Lord gives us his goodness, but we never fully receive it. We see it as it comes to us, but so much of life calls us away so quickly. We end up laying it aside or only receiving it partially. Jacob in this reading shows us something different because he rests in this place. -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Woman with an Issue of Blood: French Painter: James Tissot: 1886 This painting resides at The Brooklyn Museum. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Gospel Reading: Matthew 9: 18-26 First Reading: Genesis 28: 10-22

He makes me lie down in green pastures. . . . — Psalm 23:2 It is a busy season as I write this short devotional message. My list of responsibilities has increased lately, and I have less open time than I would like. Sheep have a difficult time pacing themselves as well. They need a guide who can provide them with a life-giving cadence. The psalm writer found that with the Lord as his shepherd, he was not driven but made to stop and rest. Rest is a part of the Lord's kingdom rhythm. All who are within God's care are invited to work diligently for six days and then rest in him on the seventh because that is the best way to live. While resting, we sheep are encouraged to trust that whatever tasks we haven't accomplished or plans we haven't completed will be covered by the one who promises that we will lack nothing. Resting is one of those invitations that is also a command. Rest! Stopping our labor is a concrete way of showing that we trust the shepherd to make good on his promises to care for us. This is not easy in today's work-driven culture, so the testimony of a rested sheep can actually be quite powerful. Where in your life might you be invited to slow down? Good Shepherd, help us to rest in you, trusting that you have us in the palm of your loving hand. Thank you for giving us this confidence. Amen.

Yesterday, I saw the full circle—18 years of pain, fear, burnout, and spiritual warfare brought into light.I woke up in peace. No alarms. No stimming. No screams.My once nonverbal son—the one who bolted, screamed, couldn't tolerate showers or car rides—brought me tea in bed. I was reading the Bible. Just sitting. Resting.

In this episode, I am calling time on the nonsense that needing a break means you're lazy, weak, or somehow letting the side down. Honestly, if I had a pound for every introvert who has felt guilty for needing to recharge, I'd be recording this from my Tuscan villa.   So let's straighten this out. I'm unpacking the difference between rest, recharge, and replenishment; because yes, they are different. And I am inviting you to embrace a mindset that swaps shame for strategy. My aim is that you walk away with a new mantra, practical tips, and hopefully, a deep sigh of relief that yes, you are allowed to pause; and no, you don't need permission.   ** Key Points **   Resting doesn't always mean recharging. Guilt out, gratitude in Energy need are not optional   #PowerOfSilence #Introverts #FlourishingIntroverts   *** Resources *** Visit https://hub.flourishingintroverts.com/resourcesp for tools and resources mentioned during the podcast.

Download our Mobile App! iOS | Android --- The bus station is a hub of activity, but you are an oasis of calm amid the bustle. Engines idle, passengers scurry, and announcements echo through the cavernous space. Resting on a comfortable bench, back to a sunny window, you are content to observe the activity, smiling fondly as excited children scamper by, eager to ride. Your journey is internal, to a tranquil space only you can find. ---

The breath can be our gateway into the boundless awareness that holds all life. This meditation begins with a breath that calms our nervous system, and then invites a relaxed presence with the breath and sensation that open us to the “universe breathing.” Resting in awareness, we realize the wakefulness, peace and vitality of pure presence.
